Everyone who has followed AC on Instagram knows that he posts alot of riding videos, but after Charlotte MXGP when he hit the deck, i've seen slim to none riding vids. Alot of gym work, and being at the track, riding not so much? Anyone got anything? I guess if he is injured he doesen't want the majority to know because of all the setback he's had previously, really cheering for the kid. Is he back riding? Wich coast?

Thank you ML. Was "hoping" anyone wouldn't mention that video, does not really show anything more than him being in riding gear and going in some ruts

They joked about this on Pulp how bruises take 6-9 months to heal, and look for east coast again.

So there was definitely an injury there? Gotta wonder how may more times the guy can get knocked down before he calls it quits. Sucks that pretty much since he came out of amateurs he's been blessed with some of the worst luck in the sport.

There was definitely an injury there. According to a very reliable source who was with him in the medical center at the track it took a few hours to get the shoulder back into place. Riding figure 8's and turn tracks are the first "back to basic" things most guys do when getting back on the bike after a major injury.

Hurt or not the idea of him waiting for East coast scares the living shit out of me.

The kid gets her every year before supercross...take the risk out and put him on the damn gate. The kid didn't forget how to ride...would rather an 80% AC racing west coast than not have him at all.

I hate to sound like a dick, but I legitimately worry about the guy. Such an incredible talent that has only completed a fraction of the races he has been eligible for....would kill me not to see him healthy for one full season....the sooner he gets on the gate the better

Seems like he spent a lot of time building some actual strength in his arms and shoulders before he got back to riding. Roczen made that pretty clear.

I hope AC bounces back and reigns in a championship this season. Add another name to the list of riders who left Aldon to win a championship.

Is this AC's last year on his Pro Circuit contract? I hope for all the best for Adam this year, especially after the high expectations I'm sure Mitch and others have had of him. If he doesn't cut the mustard this year, I wonder how many other opportunities are out there for him...

Per definition a lot longer than the list of people who won a championship under Baker

At worst you would think he could be a Josh Grant type of guy. He could have a long career as he has the speed always near the top which some teams will pay for even if he can't make a full season. Hopefully though, he will live up to some of his expectations and get a championship or two.

I think he'll have a good ride for quite a few years to come just based on potential. He's got the hardest piece of the puzzle to learn.. speed. Everyone thinks they can fix everything else.

Funny you say that, because I believe that list is longer than the list of guys who didn't have a C-ship before working with Aldon that gained one when with him.
